I eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert. Sometimes, I wake up in the middle of the night, stumble downstairs to the kitchen, and gobble an entire wedge of watermelon while I stare blankly at our dog, who\u2019s staring blankly back at me.<\/p>\n<p>In my defense, this winter has been especially busy for me. The absence of the bin-o-watermelons in my grocery store has also impacted the frequency of my meals. Neither are very good excuses, though. My grocery store still sells pre-cut watermelon wedges and whole mini watermelons.<\/p>\n<p>In the interest of making myself feel a little better (or a lot worse), I\u2019m asking a simple question: How many times in the past 30 days have you eaten watermelon?
